Listen in on this Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Willie Geist and Mike Barnicle about the highly anticipated testimony of the National Security Council's top Ukraine expert Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who reportedly planned to tell House impeachment investigators that he was so troubled by President Donald Trump's July phone call with Ukraine's President that he reported his concerns to a superior, according to a copy of his opening statement. "My view is this is a great American day because of Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman, who came to the United States with his parents when he was 3 years of age, made a life for himself, spent 20 years in the American military, fought for the United States in Iraq and, as you pointed out, was awarded the Purple Heart,” says Barnicle.

Morning Joe veteran columnist Mike Barnicle and Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg discuss a federal judge ruling that the Justice Department must turn over former special counsel Robert Mueller's grand jury evidence to the House Judiciary Committee. "The same thing was ruled during the Nixon Administration,” says Barnicle. "Where does the Trump Administration go from here other than an obvious appeal?" Listen to Aronberg’s answer and why “irony is not dead.” Only on MSNBC.

Listen in on the Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Jonathan Lemire and Mike Barnicle about former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly having said he warned President Donald Trump that hiring a “yes man” in his place would result in impeachment and White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham’s statement refuting Kelly’s claim. “Where is Mick Mulvaney?” asks Barnicle about the current, acting Chief of Staff to the President. “You never see him, you rarely hear from him. When you do hear from him, he implicates himself in all sorts of impeachable offenses potentially. Where is he?"

“A lot of people in this country just want the entire situation calmed down. They want the country to calm down. They want candidates to calm down. It would be tough to have the crowd last night calm down because they were really into it, unfortunately; but I think it's important going forward —especially today as we talk about the events that occurred over the weekend—that we take the time and the thought to separate Donald Trump and, whatever you feel about Donald Trump, to separate him and how he behaves, and how he speaks, from the actions of the Delta Force team, the special operators, who flew in and conducted that mission. It's two separate things, and the best of us, the best of who we are, and what we do around the world, and why so much of the world still relies on us, was in operation,” says Barnicle after this weekend saw President Trump receive “lock him up” chants at Game Five of the World Series and U.S. forces kill ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in a raid in Northwestern Syria.

“Nearly 300 elected officials representing the United States of America, our country, don't have the character, the courage, or the confidence in their own beliefs to stand up against a man, Donald Trump, who is totally ill-equipped to be President of the United States—and they know it,” says Morning Joe contributor Mike Barnicle during a conversation with hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough about impeachment proceedings of presidents past and Republican lawmakers who continue to protect the controversial actions of President Donald Trump.

Morning Joe’s Mika Brzezinski, Willie Geist and Mike Barnicle discuss the latest polls and what’s on the minds of the public as the 2020 presidential race approaches. "They want someone who will calm the situation down—get it back to a state of semi-normalcy, if we can ever get back to a state of semi-normalcy. (Vice President) Joe Biden does that for them, for many people,” says Barnicle about the Biden’s presidential candidacy. Join the conversation here.

Listen in on this Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski and Mike Barnicle about President Donald Trump’s Ukraine scandal following congressional testimony from William Taylor, the top American diplomat in Ukraine, that tied Trump to withholding foreign aid to pressure Ukraine to investigate his political rivals. “It’s a story well told by a man who took notes. The statement reads like the first chapter of a novel or a treatment for a movie. It has everything that the public can understand. It has good guys and bad guys. It has heroes and villains, and it has an ending that you can guess at—but you kind of know where the ending is going,” says Barnicle. Hear more of the discussion and what this testimony means for the Republicans who still support the president.
